hi guys,

am pretty new to forced induction motors but will be attempting to fix this issue myself, any help would be appreciated.

short story:

just got a new clutch after frying the last one, 40k later i lose all top end power, as though the turbos weren't there. doing a head check i notice that when the revs are up it's blowing a lot of what at a glance is white smoke (pretty sure it's smoke and not water vapour), pulled over straight away and shut it down. many hours later... trailered it home, had to start it to get it up onto the trailer, no smoke until revs go up again, but only a little this time (rev to 2.5k). any clues??? i was thinking turbo seals? the turbos are hks gt-ss if it helps, running 15 psi. car is making roughly 310rwkw.

car is now home and i have begun removing everything but hit a snag. could someone give me some very specfic advise on removing the water pipes and lambda sensors, and also any oild lines. i am doing this in my driveway (no choice) so would much rather not getting oil everywhere.

here's a pic of where i'm at right now.
